The nominations for the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards are out and it shouldn’t be surprising that after the year they’ve had, Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande received the most nominations with 10 nods each. Thank you, next.

But Swift and Grande will be facing serious competition with a couple of outstanding newcomers. Billie Eilish, new to the VMAs, was right behind the women with nine nominations while Lil Nas X, who has yet to relinquish his stranglehold of Top 40 radio, clocked in at eight nods. Other artists who could walk away winners include Shawn Mendes, Cardi B, Camila Cabello and J Balvin—even Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga’s “Shallow” earned a nom because A Star is Born‘s reign still isn’t over. And while Miley Cyrus didn’t get a single nomination (perhaps MTV was scared of a twerk resurgence?), her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, is recognized in several categories, thanks to his contribution to “Old Town Road.”

The VMAs also added two new categories: Best K-Pop and Video for Good (for those who use their platform for positive messaging), and also reintroduced Best R&B after a 12-year absence. Fans who want to ensure their favourites take home that coveted astronaut statue have until August 15 to cast their votes at vma.mtv.com in 14 different categories, including “Video of the Year,” “Artist of the Year,” “Best Collaboration,” “Song of the Year,” “Best New Artist” before the awards are handed out on August 26 in the ceremony that will be hosted by comedian Sebastian Maniscalco.
